Apparently he started very positively at Barrow and slowly regressed as his confidence was sucked from him given how crap Barrow were but there were the likes of Middlesbrough, Sunderland and Hull tracking his progress while at Barrow, it's probably a good thing for us that he didn't join a better performing team than Barrow at the time. He is a fantastic signing at this level.

Quoted from Tommy


He doesn't say he hasn't seen him play, only that he hasn't worked with him before personally.

I very much doubt Hurst would sign anyone having not seen them play at some stage of his career.


As much as Dave may have been consulted PH may have asked Ben Davis or Luke Waterfall but I would imagine before any of that he and Doigy will have gone through a due diligence process that has served them really well in the past.

Really happy with this signing.

And as others have said, this appears, assuming the 3 retained make the step up to L2 ok, to be the strongest looking set of fullbacks we've had for a while. In terms of all 4 being good enough to start.


Had to rack my brains for a time when we had that situation, 2 fullbacks on both sides that were all good enough to start.  Going back to late 90's/early 2000's with Macca/Butterfield & Gallimore/Dave Smith.  Even then Butterfield and Dave Smith were used elsewhere on more regular basis.
